KBR reports higher sales in government solutions unit

KBR said today sales in its government solutions unit in the most recent quarter reached $1 billion, up 19% from the same three-month period a year earlier.

KBR said the government solutions business saw 16% organic growth and also benefited from its acquisition of SGT. The company cited growth in its logistics business, continued disaster recovery work for the Air Force at Tyndall Air Force Base, FL, and expansion of its engineering business as growth drivers.
